Definitions

  • the present finding is in the field of machines for packaging pallets.
  • a machine referred to as a stretch hooding machine i.e., configured to cover a stack of articles arranged on pallets with a hood of a stretchable tubular film adapted to protect and stabilize said articles.
  • Stretch hooding machines for packaging pallets by a hood of stretchable tubular film are known from the state of the art.
  • Said film is fitted on products arranged on a pallet in order to stabilize the pallet, thus making it transportable, and in order to protect the products against external agents, especially during the transport and storage steps.
  • the products can be of various types, including food or beverage products, whether in bulk or packaged in packs or bundles, cement bags, bags of food products, bricks, or even household appliances, buckets, paint cans, etc.
  • the action of the machines is based on the use of an elastic stretchable tubular film shaped in spools where the film exhibits a planar surface on the two long side thereof, and a bellows-folded part on the short sides thereof.
  • the currently available machines for packaging pallets by a hood of stretchable tubular film comprise a frame, having a predominantly vertical extension, on which:
  • the film is withdrawn by unwinding from a warehouse that can be integrated in the frame or independent, and that generally comprises at least one stretchable film spool.
  • the film supplying device provides for withdrawing a length of stretchable tubular film from said warehouse.
  • the cutting and welding device is located below the supplying device, which cutting and welding device is arranged to cut and weld the film so as to obtain a hood that is closed at an end thereof; for some applications, the upper welding is not carried out, thus creating a tubular hood open at the two ends thereof.
  • the suctioning device located below the cutting and welding device, is configured to open the lower flaps of the stretchable tubular film so as to allow the insertion of the positioning device, which in turn grasps said lower flaps, spreading them apart beyond the size of the pallet, and it lowers the same hood, fitting it on the underlying stack of material to be protected.
  • the supplying device generally comprises a pair of rollers, at least one of which is motorized.
  • the rollers are arranged to hold therebetween a section of tubular film, which is in a flattened configuration in two overlapping layers.
  • the rotation of the rollers causes a dragging of the film in the same direction as the rotation direction of the same rollers.
  • Said length of film that is withdrawn by the rollers is obtained by unwinding from the film spool present in the warehouse.
  • the machine can automatically perform the exchange from a spool to the other one, so that the film is unwound from the most suitable spool present in the warehouse.
  • said solution requires two distinct motorizations to process the film coming from the two spools.
  • the cost of the second motorization, including the control and management members, makes this solution not very cost-effective and applicable only when the use of two spools in the warehouse is in fact necessary, involving the implementation of a machine that is less flexible and has a lower frequency.
  • An object of the present invention is to provide to the art an improved stretch hooding machine for packaging pallets, which is structurally and functionally devised for overcoming one or more of the drawbacks set forth above with reference to the mentioned prior art.
  • a main object of the invention is to finalize a stretch hooding machine that maintains the characteristics of flexibility and high production, allowing the use of more than one stretchable film spool, without adding further motorizations, with respect to those already present in the machine.
  • a further object of the invention is also to provide to the art a machine for packaging pallets within the scope of a solution that is flexible and of a quite moderate cost.
  • an embodiment of the present invention provides a machine for packaging pallets comprising a warehouse film, a film positioning cart arranged to grasp a portion of tubular film at an end and to fit it on the pallet, a film preparation cart arranged to withdraw, by a supplying head, the portion of tubular film from the warehouse and to carry out the cutting and welding thereof at a certain section; the warehouse film is configured to hold at least two spools of tubular film and the supplying head is configured to work with the film coming from the first or the second spool.
  • said head comprises a motorized roller, a first idle roller and at least second idle roller free to rotate about their axis and suitable to be put in rotation by the contact with the motorized roller.
  • the first idle roller is configured to withdraw and hold a portion of the tubular film of the first spool being interposed between the first idle roller and the motorized roller and said at least second idle roller is configured to withdraw and hold a portion of second tubular film interposed between the second roller and the motorized roller.
  • the supplying head comprises an approaching device configured to put the first and the at least one second idle roller in contact, by the motorized roller, passing from a contact position to a detached position from the same motorized roller.
  • Said change of position preferably occurs in an alternated manner, i.e., when the motorized roller is in rotation and the first idle roller is in the contact position, the at least second idle roller is in the detached position, and vice versa.
  • a further advantage is given by the fact of providing a mechanical construction of the supplying head which is simple and well integrated in the film preparation cart; in fact, the approaching device is preferably configured to translate said first and at least second idle rollers according to an axis parallel to the ground and in a direction orthogonal to the rotational axis thereof.
  • Another aspect of the invention is to provide a solution where the supplying head further comprises holding means configured to block the first tubular film and the second tubular film in place.
  • the moving means are configured to alternately bring a pad in contact with a first or second abutting member so that said pad exerts a force against the abutting members, thus blocking the first and/or the second tubular films that are interposed.
  • said holding means block the film, which would otherwise be released, with the risk that it unwinds falling to the ground.
  • said holding means release the corresponding film to allow the unwrapping thereof to the aim of its preparation and use.
  • the film to be used is perfectly centred with the cutting and welding members as well as with the grasping members of the film preparation cart.
  • the film preparation cart further comprises film centering members to translate the supplying head between at least due positions so that said supplying head is in a first position where the first film is centered with the film preparation cart when said first film is used and in the second position where the second film is centered with the film preparation cart when said second film is used.
  • Another aspect of the invention is to make the passage from a film to the other one automatic and rapid, due to the presence of the control unit configured to drive at least the approaching device, the moving means, and the film centering members, for the use of the first or at least second tubular film, as a function of the type of pallet to be processed.
  • a stretch hooding machine 1 for packaging a stack of articles (not shown in the figure) is shown and more simply referred to as pallet 200 herein below; said stretch hooding machine 1 provides for a frame 10 on which all the devices required for the machine operativity are installed.
  • the stretch hooding machine 1 is supplied by a warehouse 2 generally located in the proximity of the frame 10.
  • the warehouse 2 is configured to hold at least two spools of tubular film, including preferably at least one first spool 21 of first tubular film 100 and a second spool 22 of second tubular film 101.
  • Said first and second tubular films 100 and 101 are wound in the first spool 21 and the second spool 22 in a flattened configuration, respectively.
  • the first and second tubular films 100 and 101 are substantially arranged in two layers overlapping and laterally joined by a length of film that is preferably bellows-folded.
  • the dimensions of the film perimeter vary as a function of the perimeter to be packaged, as well as the film thickness may generally range from 25 to 180 micrometres as a function of the characteristics of wrapping/stability that it is desired to achieve.
  • the function of the machine 1 is to generate a hood by the use of the elastic tubular film 100 or 101 and to fit it on the pallet 200, in order to ensure the stability thereof for the transport and protection against external agents.
  • the first and second tubular films 100 and 101 can be of the same type or of a type that is different, for example, in their thickness or dimensions. In fact, as the size of the perimeter of the pallet 200 change, it may be necessary to use tubular films having different dimensions, as well as according to the type of product stored on the pallet 200, it may be necessary to use films with a thickness that is more suitable to ensure the proper packaging thereof.
  • the stretch hooding machine 1 will automatically withdraw from the warehouse 2 the first tubular film 100 or the second tubular film 101 as a function of the recipe intended for the type of pallet 200 to be processed, said recipe being defined in the program of a control unit that manages the stretch hooding machine 1.
  • first and second tubular films 100 and 101 are of the same type, the presence of a first and a second spools 21 and 22 in the warehouse 2 will ensure a higher efficiency of the machine 1, thus optimizing the times for changing the spool.
  • the stretch hooding machine 1 comprises two carts, i.e., a film preparation cart 3 and a film positioning cart 4.
  • Said film preparation 3 and film positioning 4 carts are installed on the frame 10, which preferably comprises at least two posts 11.
  • the frame 10 comprises four posts 11 extending vertically according to a vertical direction that is orthogonal to the ground.
  • the four posts 11 are connected to the ground by a pedestal 12 on which a conveyor 14 rests, which is configured to receive and transfer a pallet 200 according to a forward direction Z.
  • the film positioning cart 4 is arranged to grasp the length of first tubular film 100, or the second tubular film 101 at an end and to fit said length of film 100 or 101 on the pallet 200; on the other hand, the film preparation cart 3 is arranged to withdraw a portion of first tubular film 100, or second tubular film 101 from the warehouse 2, to carry out the cutting and welding thereof at a certain section of said tubular film 100 or 101, besides being arranged to open the lower flaps thereof.
  • the film positioning cart 4 translates vertically, while the film preparation cart 3 remains in a stationary position, preferably at the top of the frame 10.
  • the film preparation cart 3 comprises a supplying head 5, welding and cutting members 8, and suctioning devices 9.
  • the welding and cutting members 8 are arranged to cut the portion of tubular film 100 or 101 above the welding, thus separating it from the rest of the spool 21 or 22.
  • the film preparation cart 3 provides for, below the welding and cutting members 8, the suctioning devices 9.
  • Such suctioning devices 9 are arranged opposite in order to be able to contact the two sides of the tubular film 100 or 101 and they are configured to grasp the lower flaps of said tubular film 100 or 101.
  • Said suctioning devices 9 perform a first approaching to the tubular film 100 or 101, followed by a moving away; said moving away is aimed to open the lower flaps of the tubular film 100 or 101.
  • the film positioning cart 4 is located below the film preparation cart 3.
  • said film positioning cart 4 comprises grasping pliers 41, preferably four pliers, and film collecting members 42.
  • the film positioning cart 4 provides for lifting in a vertical direction approaching to the film preparation cart 3, so that said pliers 41 can enter the lower flaps of the tubular film 100 or 101, kept open by the suctioning devices 9.
  • the film collecting members 42 contact the tubular film 100 or 101 to retrieve all the hood withdrawn from the supplying head 5 and already cut and welded in the film preparation cart 3.
  • an extension step begins, in which the pliers 41 spread apart, moving on a horizontal plane parallel to the ground, so as to extend the hood to be able to fit it on the underlaying products.
  • the extension step continues until obtaining a film having a size larger than the perimeter of the pallet 200 to be processed. Thereafter, the descent of the film positioning cart 4 begins, during which the film collecting members 42 release the hood on the pallet 200.
  • the hood is completely released by the pliers 41 and fitted on the stack of articles.
  • the lower cart 4 rises vertically to be able to allow the exit of the hooded pallet 200 and to carry out a subsequent working cycle.
  • the supplying head 5 provides for withdrawing a length of first tubular film 100, or second tubular film 101 by unwinding from the warehouse 2 as best detailed herein below.
  • said supplying head 5 comprises a motorized roller 51 and at least a pair of idle rollers 52 and 53.
  • first idle roller 52 and a second idle roller 53 that are free to rotate about their axis and suitable to be put in rotation by the contact with the motorized roller 51 are defined.
  • Said first and second idle rollers 52 and 53 are configured to withdraw and hold a portion of first and second tubular films 100 and 101; in fact, the tubular film 100 of the first spool 21 is interposed between the first idle roller 52 and the motorized roller 51, while the tubular film 101 of the second spool 22 is interposed between the second idle roller 53 and the motorized roller 51.
  • FIG. 1 For example, three, provided that there is enough space to make them contact the motorized roller 51; in such a case, the warehouse 2 will hold three spools the films of which will be interposed between the corresponding idle rollers and the motorized roller 51.
  • the supplying head 5 comprises an approaching device 54 configured to bring said first and second idle rollers 52, 53 in contact with the motorized roller 51 passing from a contact position C to a detached position D from the motorized roller 51.
  • the two idle rollers 52 and 53 are never simultaneously in contact with the motorized roller 51 to avoid the concomitant unwrapping of the first and second tubular films 100 and 101; in the case that on the supplying head 5 more than two idle rollers are installed, during an operative step, just one idle roller will always be the only contact with the motorized roller 51.
  • the first film 100 is hold between said rollers; by virtue of this solution, when the motorized roller 51 is put in rotation, it transmits by friction said rotation to the first idle roller 52; in such a manner, the first tubular film 100, which is interposed, is towed, withdrawing it from the first spool 21, and it is collected below said rollers.
